Abstract: Optical fibers, sensitive to gamma- and electron-radiation, can be used for local on-line dose measurements during radiation therapy. The properties ofoptical fibers such as small dimensions, high flexibility and biocompatibility as well as the pure optical signal generation and transfer enable an intracorporal application of these dosimeters with minmal burden to the patient.They allow an on-line measurement in the tumor itself or in the surrounding tissue. A good dose determination already during the irradiations for control and verification of irradiation planning will give a considerable improvement of the therapy and so also a good tumor control. The properties of selected optical fibers for dosimetric purposes have been investigated. Different sensor types and their applications in radiotherapy are described. On-line evaluation procedures for fading and tissue-equivalence corrections of the dose reading are also described in detail. First clinical tests with the dosimeter are being discussed.
